There was a review of Ellis' COBOL for CP/M in Micro-Cornucopia
back '83 or so.  I don't have the article -- I've just seen it
in their listings of back issues.  You should still be able to
get it from them.  I don't have their address or phone number.
If you need it, let me know, and I will dig out an old issue.

Wait a minute, I do have a phone number, but I don't know if its 
their BBS or their tech help line.  It's 503-382-8048.  You can 
always try it; if you get a modem, you've got the BBS.  I believe 
the hours for the tech line are just in the morning.  I called 
them twice with questions about my Kaypro 2X.  They were quite 
polite and helpful both times.  The second time, the guy I was 
talking to just lifted the top off of the Kaypro he was using so 
that he could see what I was talking about.  Kinda neat!
